5-3-1 What is EtherNet/IP?
EtherNet/IP is a multi-vendor industrial network protocol that uses Ethernet. The specification
is an open standard managed by the ODVA (Open DeviceNet Vendor Association), as is De-
viceNet, and it is used for a variety of industrial devices.
NS-series PTs can communicate with CS/CJ-series EtherNet/IP Units and CJ2H-CPU
@@-
EIP CPU Units, which have a built-in EtherNet/IP port. Also, it is possible to perform tag mes-
sage communications if an NS-series PT is connected to a CJ2H-CPU
@@-EIP PLC. The
CJ2H-CPU
@@-EIP has tag name server in the CPU Unit, so if a tag name and address table
is stored in advance, it is possible to perform access from the NS-series PT using only the
tag name.
The following NS-series PTs and systems versions support EtherNet/IP.
